Over recent months we have received complaints from residents near to the rail lines about intense vibrations from the track when specific types of rail freight are passing. Many believe that these vibrations are causing structural damage to their properties.
Back in April we contacted Network Rail to report residents' concerns. They have since acknowledged our complaint and have confirmed that an initial investigation into these reported incidents would be carried out. We made further contact last week and again this morning to request a preliminary update on their findings and we'll report on progress as soon as we receive a response.
If you live in a property adjacent to the rail lines please let us know if you have experienced similar problems to those reported here and we'll ensure that Network Rail are made aware.
